Frank: There is, or at least was, a problem writing to the EEPROM using the PICSTART Plus in MPLAB. If you are using that combination, try going to the Options menu, select Development Mode and check the Editor Only box. In the edit only mode, the data seems to get written to the device correctly. Otherwise, the EEPROM is all 'FFh'. It was still that way with MPLAB 3.09.10. I haven't tried the latest version.

The example in the MPASM manual shows setting 'org 2100h' first. >Without it, I simply generate duplicate addresses when I assemble my >code.
